Dave Lawson is old. Is he the kind of old guy who thinks making $150,000 means you smoke cigars and wear a silk top hat? Yes. Is he the kind of old guy who never tips a server more than $1.00, so his family always has to quietly re-tip behind his back? What do you think?
Sen Lawson Attacks Del Tech Admin for Making over $150K Each
DOVER, Del.- The battle for financial stability continues for Delaware’s teachers and three colleges in the state have recently made their case for more money.
One of them, Delaware Technical Community College, is looking to increase teacher salaries.
Del. Tech Academic Affairs VP, Justina Thomas, said more money would help secure the school’s future.
“We’ve actually been trying to stabilize faculty salaries for some time to remain competitive in the education industry,” said Thomas. “Retention of all of our employees is extremely important to us and we are in the midst, like everyone else, finding ourselves with some vacancies, and in recruitment mode.”
Del. Tech President, Mark Brainard, presented his budget proposal to the Joint Finance Committee earlier this month. The meeting did not go without controversy though.
Senator Dave Lawson (R-Dist. 15), was not quick to hop on board.
“The top eight positions, not including yours Mr. President, comes to about $1.2 million for eight people,” said Sen. Lawson during the meeting. “Is that justifiable?”

Fresh Delaware is set to open Tuesday, Feb. 14, in Seaford.
Availability of medical marijuana to the county’s patients has been slow, but steady – First State Compassion opened its Lewes location in May 2017; Columbia Care opened its Rehoboth location in October 2019; and Best Buds opened its Georgetown location in October 2022.
